At the Eurovision Song Contest 1977, France triumphed: Marie Myriam beat the assembled competition of Europe with the song “L’Oiseau et l’Enfant” and lifted the coveted trophy. For a long time this remained France's last win. The ESC is the biggest music competition in the world and one of the longest-running television shows of all time; it has been held every single year since 1956. Each participating country sends one entry into the race, and at the end of the night juries and viewers cast their votes: the famous “points” (from one up to the legendary “twelve points”) decide victory or defeat. The contest is far more than just music: it is a colourful festival of nations, full of flamboyant costumes, big emotions and fans cheering in front of their screens. By tradition the winning country hosts the contest the following year before an audience of millions. Learn the year, country, performer and winning song of this 1977 entry and dive into a piece of European music history. What starts as plain knowledge quickly becomes one aha moment after another.
